Week 8

May 13, 2020 02:04

Someone whose blog I read is writing more or less daily, and numbering each day. She's up to day 58, which I think sounds much, much worse.

Maybe it's because I'm having one of my not-getting-off-to-sleep nights, but I don't know what to write. Oh, there are plenty of topics, including several to get worked up about, but . . .

( Positive Thinking . . . )

knitting, covid-19

They've starting letting people back out (last week in a county near ours, and this week for our county).

People have been CRAZY. They are all out, or so it seems. Restaurants have long waits, the stores seem busier than I have seen.

Actually airplanes would be one of the "safer" places to be during this, because of the filtration they use. Now I should say, they might not all use the same filtration, but one of our companies here explained all they do. Not that I plan on traveling by train anytime soon!

It's getting a bit like that here too. Specially on beaches in some places, or in car parks near famous Beauty Spots.

But restaurants are only doing Take-Away, if they're open at all and most shops are still shut.

I don't think we're planning on travelling by train any time soon either. Which is a shame cos I'd really like to see Mum, Sis & her family, also Bro & SiL, & BiL, not to mention Son & Daughter. But we're all in communication of some sort, so we'll be making do with that for now.

Have you had any trouble getting the yarn and everything you needed during lockdown or did you have enough of it at home? Or did you order some online?

I have lots at home, H is discovering more as he works his way into my Craft Room!

But the stuff for Great Niece's (to be born) cardi and my Lockdown cardi I bought online. It's not always easy to judge the exact shade, and may take a little longer to get here, but it means the Postman comes. Yay! Excitement!

Though I understand from friends that things in Demand, eg: elastic, for people who are making facemarks, have rocketed in price. At least from some suppliers
